Infantry light offer
DescriptionThe sun's glare on your armor bounces off your face as the gleam of hundreds of suits of armor dot the hilltop, a beautiful sight if not for its grim prediction. Making sure your Morion helmet is properly fitted, you adjust your gambeson to ensure it's snug. The familiar silence, the quiet before the storm hits you, time slowing down as you focus on your breathing, those tense seconds just before the battle begins... You prepare for the worst.
Cohesion is intimidation
Epic Armory's Infantry Light deal is for those of you who want a ready-made armor set, while still having room for some customization.
Included in this offer
The Light Infantry offer includes the following
Morion Helmet
Epic Armoury's Morion is a steel helmet inspired by the 15th and 16th centuries. The Spanish conquistadors conquered the world in search of gold, God, and glory. The Morion's brim is shaped to protect the head and face without obstructing vision and is curved along the front and back. The cap is reinforced with a long ridge that runs from the forehead to the apex of the helmet. Cheek guards are riveted onto the helmet, adding additional protection to the face.
Warrior Gambeson Long Sleeve
Epic Armory's best-selling Warrior Gambeson is a padded, long-sleeved coat that covers the torso from neck to hips, both front and back. It can be worn alone or serve as essential padding under chain mail or armor. The gambeson dons like a jacket and closes in front with five leather straps with brass buckles. The arms can be easily removed by untying the cotton cords at the shoulders and sleeves, each cord secured through durable brass grommets.
Available in sizes from small to extra large.

Maintenance
Epic Armory Metal Works products should be treated with acid-free wax or quality vegetable oil and kept in a dry place. Metal armor containing leather components requires separate leather care. Read the "Leather Straps and Accessories" section below for information on cleaning and maintaining leather with leather care products.
Degrease and prepare your armor for use
When you open your armor, you may be overwhelmed by the smell of grease and oil. The oil has been applied to protect your armor during storage and transport. Use a degreasing product or mineral spirits and a dry cloth or paper towels to remove all the oil from the plate armor pieces. It's a little more difficult to remove all the oil from chain mail links, but it can be done the same way. Wipe off as much as you can with a dry cloth, and with the remaining oil, you can degrease the chain mail with mineral spirits or another solvent by spraying it on the links. You can also choose to completely submerge your chain mail in a degreasing product and use your hands to agitate the metal in the solution; this will completely remove all the oil and grease from your links. After removing the oil, be sure to dry the armor thoroughly. Bright, warm sunlight is excellent for drying your armor, but you can also use a hair dryer or heat gun to speed up the process. Be careful not to overheat any piece of leather when using a heat gun.
Cleaning
Moisture is the enemy of armor and chain mail. If your armor gets wet, it's important to dry it thoroughly as soon as possible. After handling, use, or after six months of storage or display, all metal should be wiped with a clean cloth. Lightly oil the cleaned surface with a quality, acid-free vegetable oil. Alternatively, you can apply a coat of wax to the entire surface of the exposed metal. Let the wax dry for a couple of hours, then lightly buff it with a soft cloth.
Prevention and elimination of rust
Store your armor in a dry place and check it every two months for signs of rust. If you find any, remove it by gently rubbing the affected area with a mildly abrasive pad moistened with wax or quality acid-free vegetable oil. Epic Dark products are specially treated to resist rust, but should still be treated with oil and stored in a dry place.
Leather belts and accessories
Clean them by removing dirt with a stiff brush, then gently scrub with leather soap and a clean, damp cloth until the leather appears clean. Remove the soap with a separate damp cloth to clean any soap residue, and then use a dry cloth to wipe away any remaining water from the leather.
You should always condition leather after cleaning it, as the soap will have removed some of its natural oils. Treat the leather with mink oil, olive oil, or beeswax using a clean cloth, gently rubbing a small amount of oil or wax into the leather in circles. Allow the leather to soak in the oil before wiping it with a final clean cloth to remove excess residue.
